Re: Displaying a sequence number in load all DDS?

["Steve Landess" <steve_landess@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Define an output field in the subfile for displaying the relative record
number.

Then, in the RPG program:  Just before you write the subfile record to the
subfile, z-add or move the value of the subfile RRN field (as defined in the
F-spec continuation KSFILE line) into this new field.
